A man's weakness and strength, purity and impurity are his own, and not another man's. They are brought about by himself, and not another. And they can only he altered by himself, never by another. His condition is also his own, and not another man's. His suffering and his happiness are evolved from within. As he thinks, so he is. As he continues to think, so he remains. - James Allen
i now see why huh? moved to kentucky actually, no i don't thanks for the photos guys... Redneck Rave — throat slashing, impalement and mass arrests by Blake Montgomery | Yahoo! News — 12 hours ago A massive country music festival in Kentucky this past weekend started off on rocky footing: Police found meth, marijuana, and an open bottle of alcohol in the first vehicle they stopped at a traffic checkpoint. One of the people in the car had two active warrants out for their arrest. “We were like, ‘Well, this doesn’t bode well for the weekend,’” Edmonson County Sheriff Shane Doyle told the Lexington Herald-Leader. By the end of the five-day bash, dubbed the “Redneck Rave,” one man had been impaled, one woman had been strangled to the point of unconsciousness, and one throat had been slit. In all, Edmonson authorities arrested 14 people, and charged four dozen people from five states. The event, organized by country rapper Justin Time, took place in Blue Holler Offroad Park and drew a crowd of tens of thousands, doubling the population of the unincorporated town of Ollie, which is so small it does not have a stoplight. Redneck Rave promoters bragged that they had sold more than 20,000 tickets. The lengthy getdown, advertised as the “biggest country party you’ll ever go to,” boasted a demolition derby, goldfish racing, and a full-scale football game as well as a series of concerts. The details of the Redneck Rave’s incidents are grisly. One person slit a friend’s throat and remains at large, a 29-year-old man had allegedly strangled a woman until she passed out, one person lost the better part of a finger, and another was impaled when he drove a side-by-side over a 2-3 inch log that broke through the bottom of the recreational vehicle. Paramedics left the log inside him as they airlifted him to a hospital. Justin Time, whose legal name is Justin Stowers, wrote on Facebook, “This was the biggest event we’ve ever done and with as many people and random things that popped up unexpectedly I feel like we all handled it very well.” Doyle told the Herald-Leader last year’s Redneck Raves—there were two—“overwhelmed” his staff. He ordered all his deputies to work mandatory overtime this year and requested assistance from the Kentucky State Police. At least one person died at the event last year. Another Redneck Rave is scheduled for October of this year. “There were so many intoxicated people, we just decided, ‘If dispatch sends an ambulance in, we’re sending a deputy in with them,’” said Doyle. Six of the festival-goers face felony charges, and the sheriff’s office filed roughly 30 charges stemming from drug and alcohol violations. photo credits: rube, bluezoo, diablo, craig (tafnac) and fsu. .
“And he who is not sufficiently courageous to defend his soul — don’t let him be proud of his ‘progressive’ views, and don’t let him boast that he is an academician or a people’s artist, a distinguished figure or a general. Let him say to himself: I am a part of the herd and a coward. It’s all the same to me as long as I’m fed and kept warm.” Solzhenitsyn quoted by Winston Marshall of Mumford and sons as he leaves the band due to fallout from his comments online his crime? congratulating Andy Ngo on having the courage to write his book
Did he say why he backed down when it first happened? Didn't hear about this at all until now but it peaked my interest to look. Seems like he did the normal celebrity thing and backed down immediately. Regardless, I am happy he is speaking his piece now. The Gulag Archipelago, I have this book but I've yet to really crack at it. I should, I will. Tried the audible version but lord is that thing a snooze fest.
If he ever does something of note, please let me know. I won't follow up with this guy but if he were to release a book or whatever, it would be a good idea to support his venture. We need these people to become more successful and more well-off after they stand up to the commies.
such a sad situation in Miami coming from a firefighter family unfortunately there won't even be pieces for most of those families to bury and a deep fire has extinguished any possible miracles truly grim
Maybe this is a poor reflection on me. But the more I read about that event, the more I wanted to go.
